Only One
Standard
You and we may differ as to
money standards and out of
our very differences good may
come. But we won't differ as
to the merits of one standard
emulsion of cod-liver oil.
SCOTT'S EMULSION has
won and held its way for
nearly 25 years in the world of
medicine until to-day it is al
most as much the standard in
all cases of lung trouble, and
every condition of wasting
whether in child or adult as
quinine is in malarial fev rs.
Differ on the money ques
tion if you will, but when it
comes to a question of health,
perhaps of life and death, get
the standard.

' NO AUTOGRAPHS FOR HER.
Beirut Girl Had No Use for the Cheek
She Received.
A certain family, -whose home is in
the suburbs of London, have in their
J employ, says Amusing' Journal, a
cook, wnose ways are lnvariaDiy so
methodical and her cooking-so near per
fection that, were she to leave her pres
ent home, one-half of the mi stresses in
the district would be eager to secure
her services. Never by any chance has
dinner been late at the Myrtle villa, or
the joint under or over done, neither has
nny policeman crossed its threshold.
But, treasure that she is, she came near
to making-. a change of residence at the
close of her very first month's stay.
On the morning- of the day upon
which her wages became due, her mistress-
requested her to step into the
6tudy, where her master was waiting to
pay her. In a few moments she rushed
from the 6tudy to the kitchen, where
she had left her mistress, and in less
time than it takes to narrate had
given that astonished lady notice.
"But whatever is the matter, Mary?"
inquired her mistress. "What has
your master said or done to annoy
you?"
"He hasn't said nuthin'," replied
Mary, as she nourished a check in her
mistress' face, "but he's on'y given me
this for a month's slavery. Not me; I
ain't no ortygraph collector, I ain't."

At Hood River, Monday morning,
Mrs. Gertie Nickelsen, wife of Rev.
Chris Nickelsen.
The funeral will take place at Hood
River tomorrow, Bev. J. H. Wood of
this city preaching the sermon.
It is seldom that so sorrowful a task
is given a newspaper reporter as the
noting the passing away of so noble a
little woman as Gertie Nickelsen. She
was the daughter . of Rev. Rigby, sta
tioned for two years at Hood River.
There she met and married the man
whose heart today is almost broken at
her. loss.
It was largely through her influ
ence that he was called into the
church, and took up the calling
of a preacher. Being assigned to the
charge at Prineville, he began bis labors
there, and there she contracted the dis
ease, consumption, that finally carried
her away.
Last fall her husband took her to Cali
fornia, hoping that aided by tbe climate
and surroundings she might regain her
health, bat tbe hope was vain. Realiz
ing that the end was near, she asked to
be brought home tbat she might die sur- J
rounded by her relatives.
bhe died as she bad lived, sustained
by an nnfaltering trust in God, and if
finite minds may judge, today she treads
the fields of Paradise.
The Mount Lebanon Shakers have re
cently perfected an ingenious cure for
dyspepsia. Their Digestive Cordial con
sists of a food already digested and a
digester of foods happily combined.
The importance of this invention will
be appreciated when We realize what a
proportion of the community are victims
of some form of stomach troubles.
Thousands of pale, thin people have little
inclination to eat, and what they do ent
causes them pain and distress.
The Digestive Cordial of the Shakers
corrects any stomach derangement at
once. It makes thin people plump.

read the little book which has been
placed in the hands ot druggists for free

Humor In Literature.
Humor is one of those pervasive quali
ties that take possessin of your senses
line tne smell ot the woods in summer
after a rain. You are trudging along
through a book, interested, perhaps, in
the course of the story, and impatient
for the end of it all. It is an ordinary
book, you think, like a hundred others,
bat a tarn of the page and you are in
another atmosphere. There is a grow
ing warmth about your heart and a lift
to the corners of your month. You do
not break into a laugh, but you chuckle
to yourself and forget about the end of
the tale. Yon want to linger over the
trail again. In a twinkling the "char
acters" of the story have become human
beings like yourself. "Droch'' in June

Electric Witter.
Electric Bitters is a medicine suited
for any season, but perhaps more gener
ally needed when the languid, exhausted
feeling prevails, when the liver is torpid
and sluggish and the need of a tonic and
and alterative is felt. A prompt use of
this medicine has often averted long and
perhaps fatal bilious fevers. No medi
cine will act more sureiy counteracting
and freeing the system from tbe malar
ial poison. Headache, Indigestion, Con
stipation, Dizziness yield to Electric Bit

The Bed Sea Miracle Often Seen In Link
Blver.
It is a well-known fact that at cer
tain times of the year Link river, a
stream a mile and a quarter long-, which
connects the great water systems above
and below this point, becomes almost
dry, says the Klamath Falls Express.
This state of affairs, however, lasts, as
a rule, but a few hours, during which
time people have been known to walk
across the river, 300 feet wide, without
getting their feet wet. The bottom of
the river has been dug- out in many
places by the action of the water, form
ing large potholes, and when the river
becomes dry these holes are filled with
trout, which are left stranded. At such
times it is a common occurrence to see
men and boys knocking the fish on the
head with clubs, and in this way secure
many a. good meal.
There are many traditions regarding
this phenomenon among the Indians
here, but the real cause of the low wa
ter in the river is the action of the wind.
The course of the stream is southeast,
and the high winds which, prevail in
the spring and fall are from the south,
and blow up the river. The outlet from
the upper lake being small, the force oi
the wind keeps tbe water back in the
big lake, causing the river to become
very low. .

INCIDENT.
Leg Wins a
Broken
Race.
t A fatal cycling accident happened re
i&ntly at Maison Laffitte. Two young
Englishmen, F. Morris, the steeplechase
jockey, and F. Davis, first stableman in
the employ of L. Robert, the trainer,
had arranged a bicycle match of six
kilometers from the Maison Laffitte rail
way bridge to the Croix de Noailles and
back. They had almost completed the
race when Morris, Who was a little
ahead, looked back to see how far Davis
was behind, and in, doing so hO let! his)
machine run aeainst the curbstone. The
unfortunate rider came to the ground
and broke his leg below the knee. Mor
ris; who was following close behind.
could not avoid his fallen opponent and
was thrown heavily to the ground,
where he remained insensible.
Disregarding both his own broken leg-
and his friend lying motionless on the
ground, Jjorris, in his anxiety to wm
the race, mounted his bicycle and soon
reached the winning post, with one foot
an the pedal, the other hanging useless
on the opposite side. Davis waa then
carried home, but he died during the
night.

Miss Sadie Connolly Has a Marrow Escape
In New York.
Miss Sadie Connolly, an actress, was
half smothered by lihe sweet breath of
violets the other night. She was able
to be' out of the bed the next day to re
ceive in person the congratulations of
friends, tihoug-h. still nervous and upset
over her extraordinary experience.
When not on the road She has been
at home in her snug- flait at 1445 Second
avenue, of which, her sister Julia is
housekeeper. The two sisters live en
tirely alone. Monday morning' am ex
pressman delivered at Miss Connolly's
flat a huge box of violets shipped all the
way from California in a bed of moist
moss. There were nearly 3,000 separate
flowers. The penetrating odor filled the
flats. Miss Connolly's bedroom has no
means of ventilation except a door open
ing into the front parlor and another
communicating with her sister's bed
room. The air being chilly the actress re
tired in the midst of her violets witih the
windows all closed. The next morning'
her sister found her unconscious. A
physician, who was promptly called
brought her back to earth after having
dumped the violets outdoors. These he
said were partly responsible for thle
young woman's condition. As they
were cut flowers and in the process of
decay they had added greatly to tihe
carbonic acid in the room. ..... ....
